Original Commentary
Robert is really revealing quite a bit about him today, isn't he? I was trying to find the most delicate way to word Brisbane's line in panel three as I'm very sure there are several people out there who do in fact support their families on tips and do it well... it just felt like a cheap shot. After all, any income I make is pretty much tips when you get down to it, so yes, Brisbane is poking fun at me to. The place they are eating at looks more like an Indian restaurant than a Thai place... perhaps they changed their name for tax reasons? -Isabel
Modern Commentary
There are a lot of places where you can make a good living off tips. The Nuggets cafe isn't one of them.
Brisbane does come off as a bit classist here. He doesn't mean it like that exactly, but Jane is a little to attached to a job that isn't going to support herself, let alone a family
